JAKARTA - The DKI Jakarta Transportation Agency together with the Polda Metro Jaya routinely conduct raids and have ticketed 1,599 motorized vehicles as a result of going against the direction on a number of roads in DKI Jakarta.

"The number of vehicles being prosecuted (BAP/Police ticket) is 1,599 vehicles," said Head of the DKI Jakarta Transportation Agency (Dishub) Syafrin Liputo as quoted by ANTARA, Saturday, March 23.

This number is the result of enforcement activities against motorized vehicles in the direction of the Cross Jaya Team of the DKI Jakarta Provincial Transportation Service from February 22 to March 22, 2024.

The action was carried out simultaneously in five areas of Jakarta, starting at 07.30 to 10.00 WIB and 16.00 to 18.00 WIB. This action was carried out together with joint personnel from the DKI Jakarta Transportation Agency with the ranks of the TNI and the Traffic Directorate (Ditlantas) Polda Metro Jaya.

Based on the results of motor vehicle action activities opposite the direction of the Traffic Jaya Team of the DKI Jakarta Transportation Agency for four days starting March 18-22, 2024, the number of vehicles being prosecuted was 394 vehicles.

The selection of this action location, said Syafrin, was adjusted to the potential area for violations of the opposite direction or against the current.

This action is expected to raise awareness and discipline in traffic through compliance with traffic signs, directional instructions and traffic officers in order to create smoothness, security and safety on the road.
